A very clean B& B with lovely gardens. The bed was comfy and there was plenty of tea/coffee/toiletries. I did not have breakfast as I had to leave each morning before breakfast was served.

everything was fine, breakfast room well stocked and very nice although I only had coffee and toast as I am not a breakfast person, room was nice but a little dark due to big trees outside and there is a good bus service in and out of the city which is regular and cheap and the private parking on site is good

A pleasant night stopover on our way from Manchester to Exemouth on a pre Christmas road trip to meet new friendsWhite Lodge was an ideal place to break our journey - the room -along with the rest of the house has lots of character - lovely & clean - & very comfortable - only the erratic shower stopped us giving it a 5

Acceptable - Rating 3/5

No real strong features, milk should have been on the breakfast counter in a flask to keep it cold.We didn't know we could have had yoghurt and fresh fruit until we sat down eating cereal ( which was the only option visible). A greater selection of breakfast would have been nice.A warmer welcome on arrival.A shower that did not fluctuate between boiling and freezing.

Response

Milk and butter is delivered to the table straight from the fridge when the guests sit down. A notice is on the buffet telling guests if they require fruit and yoghurt to please ask as I prepare it when it is ordered. Also it is included on the menu on the table. I am not sure what is needed to have a greater selection of breakfast, I already provide a choice of 5 different egg styles. No complaints about the shower either before or after your departure. Sorry if you felt my welcome was not warm.

White Lodge, Cheltenham - Rating 5/5

White Lodge was perfect for what we needed. We were going to an afternoon wedding so the owner allowed us to check in early, then gave us a key to return late. She went out of her way to help us and it was very much appreciated. Room was very comfy with tea-making facilities too. Easy access from A40 so would definitely recommend to anyone who needs to stay in that area. Free WiFi and excellent prices too.

Charming character house- Rating 4/5

Lovely place for a stop over convenient for the races and shops and sightseeing . The bonus for us it had a very large back garden for the dogs to run around. Safely. We had the red bedroom No 3 over looking back garden, full of character. Well stocked with shampoo, soap tissues, tea, coffee, chocolate, biscuits, toothbrush and yourown fridge. Mattress was too soft for us but the room was lovely and clean .

Very comfortable but ... - Rating 3/5

Proprietors very welcoming, breakfast good, room clean and comfortable. Unfortunately the use of a plug in room freshener resulted in an overpowering scent that was so strong it made your eyes smart and triggered off asthma in my wife. More open windows and fresh air would have achieved what was being desired.

Response

I was sorry to hear about the room freshener, although it was not plugged in just sitting in the wardrobe. Believe me when some guests vacate the room, open windows and fresh air does not go very far and the plug in is necessary. Other than that I am pleased you enjoyed your stay.

Very comfortable stay - Rating 5/5

Comfortanble two nights spent in a beautifully maintained property, with delicious breakfast, looking at a lovely garden. Once inside, no idea you were beside a busy roundabout so comfort in a very accessible location. If using the postcode and a sat nav to find it, bit tricky - we ended up in a dead end road, from which we could see the property and then had to work out how to access it, as it can only be approached one way.Easy when you know!

Response

Thank you for your response. Just to let other people know the property can be accessed both ways.

Not the friendliest welcome! - Rating 3/5

Hard to find, straight before a busy roundabout but well signposted parking bays. An unwelcoming greeting but the room was clean although far too full of furniture for the size of the room. The shower was consistently warm. We missed breakfast which finishes at 9 - even on a Sunday.

Response

Sorry if you thought you had an unwelcome greeting. All furniture in the room is there for a purpose, if I took any out people would complain, no wardrobe or no chairs to sit on. As for breakfast I have to have a cut off time to give sufficient time afterwards for guests to leave and for me to service the rooms before 14.00, as some people arrive before 13.00. Sundays are no different to the rest of the week.

Autumn Stay - Rating 5/5

A very relaxing two night breakEverything you could need was in the en-suite room, including dinner plates, cutlery and salt/pepper for a takeaway (we didn't need them). Breakfast hearty with more tea offered. Garden was a hidden gem. You wouldn't think White Lodge was so near a busy roundabout.Pamela and Dick looked after us well in an unfussy manner. Only pity was that we didn't have enough time to view and chat about the many items and old photographs that were part of the history of this house.Would definitely return, and recommend it

What a fabulous little secret! The sat nav couldn't find it but once we did we were amazed. The decor, service and breakfast were top class. Beds comfy, proper tea bags and fresh milk in the room. We were glad of the price but you'd easily pay more anywhere else. And, what a lovely garden - felt like we were in the middle of the countryside. We highly recommend this little gem!

A little hard to find and near a busy road. However the traffic was light by evening, was muted by the double glazing and did not disturb our sleep.

Lovely B&B - Rating 5/5

We were staying for two nights to go to a friend's wedding. The rooms were well decorated with lots of thoughtful amenities such as pocket tissues and a sewing kit that you don't usually get in family run B& Bs and there was a fridge with fresh milk for the tea and coffee facilities. Both Pam and Dick were really friendly and didn't mind us arriving at 10pm on a Friday night. The breakfast on both mornings was freshly cooked and tasted fab. We really couldn't complain about anything.

Response

Thank you for your kind words. Unfortunately when we are graded Visit England require a certain number of items in the room and furnishings to achieve a 4 star status, the room sizes are dictated as well. They so far have not realized it does not always work.

really nice and homely, but there is a but!!- Rating 3/5

Clean, well furnished and the bed is really comfy!!! You get little extras which is nice - a fridge in your room, selection of hot drinks and loads of toiletries. Now comes the bad part - I couldn't get hot water out of the shower!! I had the water running for some time and it was freezing. Also there is only one power setting you can have the shower on as the other settings just release a slow trickle of water. If the shower worked I would have given 5/5

Response

We did ask this guest if he wanted us to look at the shower, he declined. There are only two controls on this shower, a lever that turns from left to right for the water flow and a knob that turns left to right towards a red button for the temperature 1-8 and past the red button control for more heat. Unfortunately this guest had the temperature turned right down to the lowest setting of cold!!!
